Will any game ever top League of Legends?

Well it's safe to say LoL is completely dominant in the gaming scene right now. It completely dwarfs all of the competition. It killed WoW, and even CoD doesn't come close to the amount of players that LoL gets.

the question is: Will any developer be able to step up and make a game better than League? ..I mean, league can't last FOREVER, right? Or will it just be Riot making League 2/Updating league forever until the end of time?

And for that matter, what about competitive gaming? Even the old greats like Quake 3, Starcraft:BW, and Counter-Strike are nothing compared to League of Legends. Is league really the new Chess?---If you believe in Goku, and are 100% proud of it, put this in your signature.

Yea but WoW was only #1 because of the addictive factor. League is #1 because it's the super competitive/skilled.---If you believe in Goku, and are 100% proud of it, put this in your signature.

Maybe some time in the distant future... if Riot ever decides to make LoL 2.

We've seen that every other company is inept at making a MOBA. Look at DotA 2 and SMITE. They are complete failures. League will dominate the competitive scene for years to come, and the casual scene, because Riot actually CARES about their fanbase and is committed to making LoL as good as it can be.

LoL killed WoW? Last I checked WoW still has close to 10 million paying subscribers. Riot wishes it pulled in 150 million dollars a month on subscriptions alone.---Kakugo Ha Yoi Ka... Isshun Sengeki! My Fists Bleed Death
